There’s still one doctor missing the Valeyard and I know it won’t happen but I would love one of the Peter Cushing Doctor as he was one of my favourite actors and the shalka doctor would be nice along side the android master.

Received my subscription copy over the weekend. Bagged magazine and figure with no wraparound cover. The magazine has the Doctor only on it.
I also saw a copy in the local newsagent with the cardbaord cover featuring Doctor+companions. Bought it because it was the only one left (and it had a differnet cover).

Not sure if this means subscribers are getting one version and shops are getting the other version.

A week late they are showing up. By way of perhaps an explanation this issue has some extra material, namely a wrap-around folder promoting the range. They have not done anything this special since the backing board for issues 1 & 2. Clearly to capitalize on the figure being the current Doctor and a smart way to remind the public about the collection. Figure box is glued to the sleeve and is difficult to remove with damaging. Rear of folder indicates a choice of 2 variant covers for the magazine. One is the image shown above at the top of this page the other being the Doctor & companions. Although late, a welcome refresh for the range and a nice promotional shot-in-the-arm for the collectors. As for the figure, about time and looks great.

Thats whats been confirmed for the moment, however considering the series is still being shown on TV I can see the collection getting another extension as there would still be many more figurines that can be done.

Personally I hope it gets an extension

Was 80 then 120 then 150/180 can see ranage still been done in time for 60th birthday.

End of 2019 will take us to 166
End of 2020 will take us to 192
End of 2021 will take us to 218

ie we’re potentially only halfway through the collection, another 5 years to go – approx 270 figures by the end of November 2023 – plus Special Editions – Mega Figures – box sets….
(assuming licensing requirements etc can be agreed)

Lots of box set possibilities:
Time War Daleks, Chase Daleks, Skaro Daleks, New paradigm Daleks….
Silurians/Sea Devils…
The Master -all regenerations…
Time Lords (Omega, Borussa, Rassilon, meddling Monk, Rani, Morbius, Inquisitor(Trial of a Time Lord)…) …
Doctors and Dopelgangers (Pat Troughton as the Doctor and ‘the enemy of the world’/Salamander, Tom Baker as the Doctor/Meglos, Colin Baker as the Doctor/Commander Maxil, Peter Capaldi as the Doctor/Caecilius….)

Throw in some of the other less obvious variations (1st Doctor dressed as a Roman, 3rd Doctor dressed in caving/mining gear, spacesuited 10th Doctor, Captain/Colonel/Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart, exterior TARDIS variations (pipe organ anyone or how about a Welsh dresser?) Master’s TARDIS (column, fireplace, concorde?)…).

In other words, every conceivable character, in multiple (significant) variations, for fans to recreate their own favourite moments from the show. Potentially the entire 60 years of Doctor Who with as definitive a range of items as possible. Of course there’s always going to be some that people wish to see that get overlooked.

The beeb should own 80/90% of rights so if its been in the show it should be possible to recreate.

May be they should release the companion sets as the a Doctor and all of the companions with that Doctor i.e. third Doctor with Liz Shaw, Jo Grant & Sarah Jane otherwise we’ll have 2 many Doctors and why are we getting a second figurine of the Doctors if we must why not release the doubles some of the Doctors played such as Meglos, robot 1st Doctor

Missymaster68 my guess is they are producing a new variant of a Doctor with each companion because (a) they suppose die-hard fans will want to collect the different looks a Doctor had across their era – like Character Options action figure series did and (b) it might provide a jumping on point for a few new collectors who might have missed out on the original figurines for Doctors done in the early days of the collection. Those may not care about having every version of Tom Baker costumes but at least this offers them an easy chance to have *one* And if course, those who want companions can finally have them. It kills a few marketing strategy birds with one stone.

I’m still waiting for Missy, the Ainley Master, and Eric Roberts master and would love Jenny the Doctors Daughter and the Melkur as a special also Raston warrior Robot and I think that Susan and both Romana’s Should be part of the main figurines and not part of the companion sets
